C2690 She Met Gu Yufei by Chance

"Mr. Zhao taught well. I'd like to learn from him. Grandpa, don't worry. I'll be fine. " Huo Niannian said with a smile.

Old Master Cheng saw that she was very firm and confident, so he didn't say anything else. The children had already grown up, so their lives should be left to them. People like them who had half their bodies buried in the ground didn't need to worry anymore.

Huo Niannian accompanied the two Old Master for a while longer. Suddenly, she remembered that a few more days would be Old Master Cheng's birthday.

She asked, "Grandpa, what are your plans for this year's birthday banquet?"

"What else can we do? It's all the same." Old Master Cheng looked very helpless, but there was a hint of satisfaction on his face. "Your parents said they wanted to hold a grand birthday banquet for this old man, but I don't think it needed to be so troublesome. It's just a birthday celebration. A simple meal is enough for a family to gather together. "

Huo Niannian could tell that her grandfather was happy for her father and mother's filial piety.

So she followed Old Master's words and continued, "My parents hosting a birthday banquet for you is also a token of their appreciation. Grandpa, although you feel that it is troublesome, you still have to bear with it in order to fulfill their wishes."

Old Master Cheng was coaxed by Huo Niannian until his flowers bloomed, and his spirit became more and more vigorous.

The two old men sat together, and it was impossible to tell that they were already over 80 years old.

Old Master Cheng's birthday banquet was in six days, and the final match of the designer competition was actually half a month later.

Huo Niannian thought that she still had time, so she wanted to personally make a snuff pot for Old Master Cheng.

She had been busy for two days.

She used the Blood Jade to make the snuff pot, but she still felt that it was monotonous. Thus, she asked Teacher Zhao of the handmade shop to help carve a landscape painting on the snuff pot.

When Teacher Zhao heard that Huo Niannian made this snuff pot to make a birthday gift for her grandfather, he agreed without another word and asked her to come back three days later to get it.

After coming out of the handmade shop, Huo Niannian actually ran into Gu Yufei.

Gu Yufei's expression was awkward for a moment, and she was at a loss. Ever since the two of them had a very bad time at Du Ruoqing's welcome party, she had never seen Huo Niannian again and had never thought that she would meet her here.

Gu Yufei quickly adjusted her expression and there was a smile on her face as she walked towards Huo Niannian. She smiled and said, "Sister-in-law is really too coincidental. I did not expect to meet you here."

Huo Niannian's expression was indifferent and there was no obvious disgust. There was also no obvious pretense of cordiality. She only looked at Gu Yufei as if she was looking at a stranger. Her voice was polite but also distant, "It is indeed very coincidental."

Gu Yufei did not care about her attitude and continued to smile warmly, "I heard that Old Master Cheng's birthday banquet will be held in two days. As a junior, I also want to give Old Master a gift, but I did not receive an invitation. Why don't you ask Sister-in-law to pass it to Old Master for me?"

Huo Niannian raised her eyebrows in surprise when she heard this. Gu Yufei and her relationship had never been good. Why would she sincerely congratulate Old Master Cheng on his birthday?

If something unusual happened, there must be a reason.

Huo Niannian immediately became alert.

She said, "If you really have this heart, you don't need to ask me. When the time comes, you will personally go to the venue and pass that gift to the service staff."

Gu Yufei seemed to have already expected Huo Niannian to say this. She gently smiled and did not respond to her words just now. She turned and said, "I don't know if sister-in-law is free now? If it is possible, I will first invite sister-in-law to the dessert shop across the street to have a seat."

Huo Niannian pursed her lips and thought that if she wanted to know what kind of medicine Gu Yufei was selling in her gourd, she should agree to it.

Thus Huo Niannian nodded her head.

When they reached the dessert shop, Gu Yufei pushed an exquisite square box to her. "I heard that Old Master Cheng likes jade and also likes to play chess, so I put in some effort. I found a chessboard made of jade, and I have to trouble sister-in-law to pass it to Old Master Cheng for me."

Huo Niannian's gaze landed on the beautifully wrapped box on the table. Her voice was cold and distant. "You have always been very concerned about my grandfather's birthday."

"That is because I have always respected Old Master Cheng, and I was in the wrong about what happened at the banquet last time. Sister-in-law, please forgive my past grievances and wish Old Master a long life." Gu Yufei's face was full of sincerity, and there was no trace of lying.

Huo Niannian lightly retracted her gaze and turned to look at Gu Yufei. She gently lifted the corner of her lips and smiled coldly, "Is that so?"

The moment their eyes met, Gu Yufei felt a little apprehensive under her cold gaze but she still bit the bullet and said, "Yes."1
